I agree to a point that skeletal Wyverns and Zulrah are a bit generous. I personally think a drop table like theirs should be applied to high slay level monsters. I'm only 83 slayer but I always thought with most skills, the higher your level, the more opportunities it should be to make money. With that concept I think that's something we can work towards.

As far as splashing goes, it's only done as an alternate for magic training and I honestly don't see a problem with it. YES you are allowed to do it for 6 hrs and such afk but due to little training methods for magic I think it should be left alone. People can easily spend tons of money to burst or do other methods and buy the 99 like with herblore so to me it's just like with other skills that have alternatives that are really cheap but at the cost of taking a lot longer...I don't see a problem...especially since you can't do anything else...

If you want to lower splashing, give magic some more ways to train such as with slayer,minigames,PVM etc. Make more PVM/slayer monsters require magic and also give us the LIVID FARM or something similiar. People may also want a game like stealing creation....let people have fun but still get exp but maybe at a lower rate. Some people I know used to train magic at castle wars just because it was fun lol.....so give us that and you will see some of those issues lower.

How are WYVERNS "overpowered" profit @ 500k per hour? I can get 500k per hour from BLUE DRAGONS. This is cancer from mostly people that are too lazy to camp wyverns. How about not focus on the monster drops in runescape and fix your d*** servers?

You know at this point in time this is completely irrelevant as no-one can actually get on and play the game properly right now! This game had got so much better and so many old members were coming back. The clan world was coming alive again. In the last week the lost connections have been steadily getting worse but today has been the worst of all! I dont know what it is you do behind the scenes regarding your servers and internet connections but maybe call in some help say from prolexic?

We love this game and want it back

Mod Mat K, if you know who these people are since you banned their accounts, why don't you seek legal action against them? There attacking you and ruining the game for everyone. Not including that DDosing is classed as a terrorist attack in America which has a minimum of 10 years behind bars. Show these punks you're serious and press charges.


If DDossing is considered against the law in America, Jagex should certainly press charges. Hell, if they're attacking German and UK from the USA maybe they can classify these little butthurt kids as international terrorists ;)

Seriously though, legal action should be taken. I just explained to my wife what was going on and said "If I went to the theater and cut the screen all up and ruined the movie for everyone cause I was mad they would arrest me and charge me with all sorts of crimes." I know it's not exactly the same but these punks are ruining a game many people pay for, I'm sure Jagex takes a financial hit as well from loss of business and paying people overtime to fix the servers.


Yes what you're saying is true, here in Latin American has neither a law nor extradition to the country or Latin American or a part of Europe, then they can do whatever they want anywhere in the world.
Unfortunately I hope they stop the attacks so that we can return to play.

Lol 90% of threads on the general board are locked, best way to deal with the problem? prevent anyone from discussing it
Discussing? More like endless spam of the same threads over and over, all being hostile towards jagex or players.

Hello,

I just have one thing to say, why does osrs has such a small development team? considering such increase in player traffic recently. I would like to see more content updates, but may be that is just me.

Other than that, I am looking forward to full screen mode :)


Thank you.

I've killed zulrah over 4500 times and i have probably made about 400m + profit.

You lose nothing on death, not sure thats true it costs money to kill it you know. At least 20-30k a kill sometimes more for some players and thats no way near as much as any other boss

I think its a balanced drop table given the fact its a 2-3 minute a kill boss and requires high attention to kill it, players who dont kill it often or kill it at all seem to not understand the real problem of zulrah, it is NOT the drop table!

Believe me it takes so much attention and consistency to really profit from zulrah which takes it toll, if a player wishes to grind a boss 10 hours a day all week it should be rewarding, its a solo boss there isnt many?

The real problem being is, its so easy to get to. I teleport to zulrah, I kill zulrah, I duel ring to clan wars, bank and into the portal to refresh my stats, repeat.

NOW imagine if you could do this for say sara, many people can solo sara and im pretty sure if i had a zilyanna teleport, it would be a problem to. Make it harder/longer to get to zulrah, longer walkway, remove teleports completely or make them rarer, The idea of mabye kill-count same as godwars? i'm sure we a community can come up with something imaginative.

Nerfing this boss's drop table will make a great update into a pointless one in my opinion and i dont think zulrah should become pointless.

It has its benefits killing zulrah and i am not saying any of this for my own benefit, just the truth.If i grind another boss all day its not as profitable i can admit because its so easy to get to, if there was no kc at godwars i would be camping there all day in complete honesty.

pa

Yes yes yes, as someone who has also made ~400m from zulrah it just needs to be longer to get to ******* trying to make all high level content slayer **** off.

Zulrah is simply way too easy to get to, which adds to no risk.

Disappointed in this game, been attempting tzar fight caves this recent week and each time I've been screwed over because the servers keep disconnecting and lagging me out mid combat. Its getting so frustrating that they even have something so time consuming and expensive that is so easily screwed because of things on their end.
